Rent affordability after hurricanes: Longitudinal evidence from US coastal states
Abstract Climate change is expected to increase the frequency and intensity of natural hazards such as hurricanes. With a severe shortage of affordable housing in the United States, renters may be uniquely vulnerable to disaster‐related housing disruptions due to increased hazard exposure, physical vulnerability of structures, and socioeconomic ...

The extent and drivers of internal agglomeration of U.S. multi‐unit firms
Abstract Research Summary This paper examines the extent and determinants of internal agglomeration—the spatial clustering of establishments within firms. It introduces a novel methodology that benchmarks a firm's spatial footprint against that of comparable stand‐alone firms, yielding a firm‐level measure of internal agglomeration.

Metrological procedures require a leveling staff calibration for an estimation of a true staff scale. The calibration process is usually realized on laboratory comparators.

General relativity and geodesy
Mass redistribution on Earth due to dynamic processes such as ice melting and sea-level rise leads to a changing gravitational field, observable by geodetic techniques. Monitoring this change over time allows us to learn more about our planet and its dynamic evolution.

Assessing infrequent large earthquakes using geomorphology and geodesy: the Malawi Rift
In regions with large, mature fault systems, a characteristic earthquake model may be more appropriate for modelling earthquake occurrence than extrapolating from a short history of small, instrumentally observed earthquakes using the Gutenberg–Richter ...

Concentration in cross‐border research collaborations and MNCs' knowledge creation in a host country
Abstract Research Summary This study elucidates the previously underexplored structural heterogeneity inherent in multinational corporations' (MNCs) internal linkages by examining the concentration of cross‐border collaborations among inventors within host countries.

Abstract The decisive reinforcement of thick concrete members is often determined by the minimum reinforcement for crack control due to restraint stresses. In contrast to the heuristic design model in Eurocode 2, a mechanically sound methodology is only provided if the deformation compatibility is considered.
